2010 VGA's on Spike discussion.

RDR shouldn't have even been nominated, glitchy piece of crap, it's so bad that I can't play it at all, I take a few steps and bam I'm stuck floating in the Sky unable to move. Mass Effect 2 deserved it more, in fact it was the only game nominated that deserved to be there IMO.spike6958

i cant wait for 11-1-11

theuncharted34

11th of January, actually? Thats ridiculously early.

Are the trailers online now it's over (I dont have spike tv)

1st of november.

I forgot about the Ameican dating system being diffrent.

No Saints Row 3 material. Volition has stood me up twice in one year. I'm hurtin' real bad, here.

repeat is on now and Dane Cook bombing is just so painful to watch I mean wow how some terrible movies and overexposure can really make a guys career plummet.

[QUOTE="Allicrombie"]that was the cheesiest 2 hours ever.S0lidSnake

i'm guessing you didnt see last year's show, or the year before that.

This was much much better. And it moved pretty fast too.

He does have his moments in the show, he surprised me.

Anyways, congrats to Rockstar and RDR for GoTY. Still mad Limbo beat Super Meat Boy for Indie GoTY though :/

Jack Black last year set my standards for this year to a very, very low point. The only reason I watch it is for the trailers really. But this one I thought was good, I'm a huge fan of NPH though.

AC Brotherhood gets nominated for best action adventure and not Bayonetta.

Seriously way to go, you can release a rehash with shallow gameplay and still get a nomination. Don't even bother trying to add depth to a game, just make sure it has good graphics and the industry will all over it. Just be sure its easy for the people judging to pick up.

They even have an award for best graphics? awesome lol, but why don't you add one for gameplay next time? :lol:

I find it absolutely hilarious that you make fun of AC:B for being shallow, but you argue Bayonetta should have been nominated.

That game was literally only made to be a sexy girl jumping around killing things, my ankles bearly got wet with how shallow that game was.

I know. NPH was a lot better than Jack black. Even the celebrities werent cringe inducing. (Apart from whats her face Rachel and a couple others). NPH even made a joke about him winning the Best Actor award.

tbh RDR is the one game I have missed out on this year so I don't know if it deserves GotY but it looks good.

My problem is with the categories they have, "best team sports game", "best individual sports game" (separate category? really?) or "best song in a game" wtf? just make a "best audio" instead of having 3 separate categories for it.

They have all this nonsense and they couldn't add ONE for gameplay or something that rewards devs for making a deeper game.

It seems they are sucking up to big publisher tbh, thats my impression at least.

I thought NPH closing out the show with this was hilarious!

"I had a great night...what a wonderful way to end my hosting career."

:lol:

NPH was a joy to watch. A lot of the other celebs were pretty terrible, though. NPH saved Olivia Munn's bit, and though I wasn't thrilled he scooped up "best performance", the bit between him and the Spiderman screen cracked me up a little. They should have had less random celebs, about 70% more host.

When it comes to gameplay Bayonetta is way deeper than AC, this is not even a contest. AC might have deeper story and characters but I thought we were nominating games here, not movies.

Jose Gonzales singing "Far Away" was much, muchbetter than Snoop Dog last year.

I'm not sure when it's coming out but I would have figured that this would have been a good time for a premiere trailer for Duke Nukem Forever.Archangel3371

Oh yeah...now that you mention it, I'm really surprised we didn't see anything onthat, either...

One of the best parts of the show :P

...What?

Bayonetta was almost a button masher...I'm aware that the combat was kinda' one of those 'easy to learn; difficult to master' types but the entire game was pretty much the same thing over and over again...just stronger enemies and more fighting styles along the way...but it was pretty much the same, beginning to end...if I remember correctly (been a while since I played it)

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood...I...I just don't understand how you can call it shallow...unless you haven't played it...but I'm sure you have...

It's got elements of stealth, action, shooters...the multiplayer was surprisingly fun...unless you're just talking about the combat and how you could take out 20 guards with that whole kill-combo thing, I don't see how you can think of it as being a shallow game...

One of the best parts of the show :P

Is it just me or did Microsoft really drop the ball with the VGAs? Nothing about Codename Kingdoms, they delay information about Gears Of War...? What?! They delayed information about a game, not the game itself but an announcement about that? WHAT?! And not only that but they delay it until 2011, its only the 12th of December... what do they need to do with this information? Also what happened to the announcement of 360 exclusives? I can't seem to find them, can anyone link me or give me a list of an titles that Microsoft announced? I heard something about 10 exclusive titles to be announced at the VGAs?xTheExploited

What is that supposed to mean? Repeating fad phrases like that - doesn't remove the problems with RDR. It shouldn't have won - even the guys who accepted the award knew it shouldn't have won.Born_Lucky
